This is a group for adults who, for whatever reason, do not have children. Whether you are single, married, a couple or none of the above, you are welcome to join. As a married woman who has made the choice to not have kids, I have found myself ostracized from friends cook-outs, dinners, etc for the simple crime of "not being a mother". I love children, but for several reasons, have decided to not breed. I am hoping this group will do a variety of activities, from dinner to book clubs and everyt …

The idea came to me recently at the completion of an event in which I was bonding with women. It is difficult to describe how I felt “transformed” by the experience; I felt stronger, more compassionate, and courageous...a better version of myself. I would like to maintain and evolve the transformation, and the only way I know how, is to find a network of women who share my desire to continually challenge themselves in mind, body, and spirit. As the name implies…this group is for women only. It i …

As Hip Mamas, we are funny, goofy, and our kids are crazy. (A wonderful crazy!) We can't finish conversations without interruption and we think herding cats might be easier than teaching a 2 year old to share— but we love what we do and need the support to get us through and keep our sense of humor.  We love coffee and good discussions. We love books, art, NPR, being outdoors, healthy food talk, and mom's night out. We are holistic - minded and we love a glass of wine. We are moms who are teache …
